Ricardo Pepi could be on the move again — but is Fulham the right next step for the USMNT striker? Christian and Alexis break down what a Premier League switch would mean for Pepi’s development and confidence. Plus, they shine a light on Pellegrino Matarazzo’s impressive rise at Real Sociedad and why his success in La Liga matters for American managers abroad.

Michael Carrick continues to impress on the touchline, but is he truly ready to become Manchester United’s full-time head coach? The guys debate Carrick’s tactical growth, leadership style, and whether United’s chaotic environment would help or hinder his evolution as a manager.

The NWSL locks in one of its biggest stars as Trinity Rodman stays put — but what does that decision say about the league’s future? Christian and Alexis discuss player power, league ambition, and whether keeping top talent at home strengthens the NWSL’s global standing or limits its stars’ potential.
